Microsoft’s Xbox One Chief Phil Spencer has been discussing DirectX 12 with curious Xbox community members through his Twitter account, and he claims that the console will see games developed specifically for the console by the end of this year.
@whatsausername3 Likely by the end of 2015.

When asked about developers adopting DX12 natively, Spencer responded:
@Xone_br33 @BuckGamer Obviously studios will do what is best for them. DX12 across Xbox1 & Win10 will give devs a lot of DX12 gamers.

Spencer recently spent time at Turn 10, developers of the Forza series, with Xbox Product Manager Aaron Greenberg. The pair spent time playing an early build of Forza Motorsport 6, and both left the studio impressed:
@aarongreenberg Always leave @Turn10Studios inspired, great racing studio @guywelch2000 @blainh @dan_greenawalt @Fillycheze @Turn10_BigBoss

Forza Motorsport 6 is due for release later this year.
